Nope. I'm enjoying watching the Buffaloes, Sanders fam and Hunter but.... Nope.

Harbaugh will play Hardball. Wanting big bucks and control that will make Rhule look like the amateur he was.  Will the product be better? Likely but there is a bit of a stink on Harbaugh if you haven't heard. His deal in Michigan is sweet despite the STINK.

He also wants a Jon Gruden like contract so that alone is reason enough to not hire him besides the current cheating scandal.

HC contracts don't count against the cap. Tepper can afford it.

If he was smart he would have never married a 2nd time in 2019 after he was a billionaire..........big big mistake.

A coach who can't even win at the college level? 

We already tried that.

(so did the Cardinals)

We had that in Wilks, everyone played better under him , when Darnold came back he looked like the game had slowed down and he wasn't seeing ghosts anymore 

If SF fires him , we should correct that mistake

Exactly!!!  Why would anyone want this kind of absurdity?!?

There is no chance Tepper brings Wilks back. I doubt Wilks would even want the job.

 

We just need to go all in on Jim Harbaugh. He's the only HC who would tell Tepper to STFU and stay out of the way.

This doesn't mean anything and I'm just a dummy on the internet but my number 1 coaching candidate was Steichen and my number 1 qb was you know who. Hire me Tepper!

HC don't count against the cap. Tepper is the 2nd richest owner in the NFL. Pay Harbaugh and give him full control. Things are getting ugly at Michigan and Harbaugh will most likely look to jump back to the pros. This has Pete Carrol leaving USC written all over it.

 

Tepper do the right thing give Harbaugh full control and let him turn this franchise around.

 

Thoughts on Jim Harbaugh as HC next season?

Okay , first: this bias against people with experience is not really a valid policy.

You follow that and a person who doesn’t win in his first opportunity is effectively barred from having a second chance.

You are ensuring that every person in charge is a rookie at doing it. 

There are so many downsides to that approach it would take the afternoon to articulate them. 

I don’t see it, obviously, as fair. Nor is it likely to be any *more* effective than employing a person with good judgement that has examined each candidate, case by individual case, and giving a thumbs up, a maybe, or a thumbs down. Probably less, especially using only people with no experience at being HC in the NFL. 

Just find the best fit. Requirements: be a bad ass innovative tough minded individual that can work with his head pulled out of the “book” and on a swivel. To start with. 

Now, as far as Harbaugh, A Harbaugh with another name, or other people that “we” would generally accept as being at least possibly able to buy the groceries And cook the meal…. Any candidate with those types of qualifications, I am inclined to want to try just about the only thing that hasn’t been tried. So yeah, do that. 

I am thinking along the lines of, Number One Requirement: Be a “no” man. Do what you think is best, not what Tepper thinks is best. If those  two things intersect, fine no problem.

To misquote Buffalo Springfield: “Everybody’s right or everybody’s wrong”.

I would do it with double pay. Appaloosa stock options, whatever. 

The idea is seriously maximum pay and a very short leash in years. A rollover one year, fine. Roll it, don’t roll it. 

One last thing: No trading future assets. Pay as you go.

It doesn’t work everyone can get out with minimum damage. 

What else has not been tried? 

Make Tepper the GM, and CEO HC? Nah, we have tried that.

Why would Tepper want to hire a guy who would tell him to STFU as you put it?!?!? That make no sense but if Tepper wants his players to be overachievers including your Sam D, then Wilks is the guy i finally understand. Can you understand that too? Its about WINNING, NOT cheating my friend.

Make it happen Tepper, bring Wilks back NOW!!!!!!

I don't get it....So he cheated at Michigan, should we deny him every coaching gig the rest of his life? I couldn't care less if he produces a winner and stays out of trouble if he were coaching the Panthers. There is so much "cheating" that goes in in sports. PED's for one and much more usage than the media even reports on. Every time a player holds on purpose to spring a play and does not get caught its still cheating technically. Bill Belicheat will go down as the greatest coach ever and is a well known seasoned cheater. The greatest QB ever Tom the douche nozzle Brady deflated footballs for god knows how long and is a cheater. Personally I just don't care and if nobody was murdered or seriously hurt I think everyone deserves a second chance.
